Clutch might be ok depending on how car was driven...but likely somewhere between there and 100k would likely be a good idea to change out. I think other poster was saying be preemptive to give peace of mind and do the IMS bearing which basically means do a clutch replacement as its basically the same work as well as rear main seal. So basically at the mileage it is at, and fact it was in an accident you could just do it off the bat and then not have to worry. Is the clutch stiff? Have you driven the car? If it is really stiff that will be a good indication it's time to do clutch anyhow.

After talking to the seller some more, I got a weird vibe from him. That coupled with the crash has me walking away from this one.

Now looking at an '00 S with 85k on it. Thanks everyone for the responses!
